Rimmon ("Pomegranate")
| Root | רמן (r-m-n) |
| Core Meanings | pomegranate, fruitfulness, (possibly) rumbling or thunder (by association in deity usage) |
| Semantic Range | pomegranate (the fruit); a Syrian deity; the name of several towns or landmarks in Israel; personal name. |
| Conceptual Significance | As a common noun, רִמּוֹן (pomegranate) symbolizes fertility, abundance, and beauty in Israelite culture (e.g., temple ornamentation). As a proper name, Rimmon designates a prominent Aramean deity and several Israelite locations, reflecting both agricultural symbolism and the religious-cultural interactions of the ancient Near East. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun; appears as the name of a deity and multiple locations. The form is absolute and not inflected for number or possession in the cited occurrences. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular proper noun (HNp). Rendering it as "Rimmon (\"Pomegranate\")" preserves the personal/place-name function while transparently reflecting the underlying lexical meaning of the noun רִמּוֹן, "pomegranate." |
